TechEd 2010 OData Service

  • Article

TechEd North America 2010 is fast approaching (it starts Monday). This year we have added an OData service to the TechEd site, just like we did for MIX10 earlier this year. The service exposes the sessions, speakers and other associated information for the conference and is a great way to learn OData. Check-out the API page on the TechEd site here for more information on the service. If you are attending TechEd make sure you stop by the DMG booth (in the DAT section) and show the folks from DMG your OData App.

Head over to https://www.odata.org/consumers to see the list of applications and libraries that can consume the OData feed. To demonstrate what you can do with the service, I have some screen shots below of browsing the feed using the OData Explorer and finding a list of all sessions about OData – there are a bunch (make sure you run the explorer in OOB mode when browsing the service).

    You can also use Sesame Data Browser to browse the TechEd feed.If the feed could be accessed from a web browser and not just from OOB apps, you could create a link to it.See weblogs.asp.net/.../sesame-data-browser-filtering-sorting-selecting-and-linking.aspxWill you add the missing clientaccesspolicy.xml file?

    Any news about an updated WP/ version of the client access lib?The old one seems to have a problem with linq queries and must be patched to get the signed assembly loaded...
